Piggin Blue Yule

Hello Nomad friends.  It's the 10th of the month and I'm elfing out over at the Christmas Kickstart Challenge where the theme is use a Christmas themed embossing folder and add a stamp.  

Of course don't have to limit yourself to one, use more if you want, but please make sure you use both parts of the challenge on your card.  Coincidentally, Ho Ho Ho, this is also the theme over at the second challenge for Let's Squash It!, so there's two challenges to get your creative juices flowing.  Here's a little Christmas Pig for your delight.

I embossed a piece of pearl pale blue card with Hobby Solutions Let It Snow embossing folder.  I masked off the snowflakes and used Manganese Blue archival ink to highlight the words.  I added the panel to a long thin blue card base and die cut a scrap of white with a stitch hills die.  The pig is a Kort og Godt stamp, stamped, coloured with distress markers and glitter glue and fussy cut.   I added the pig to the card, but I thought it looked like it needed something, so I went mad with the glitter glue and blinged every snowflake!  Ooooh, pretty!!!


Join the fun and link up your cards for a chance to win prizes.  Hugz

Are we allowed to hold you responsbile for adding to our EF mountains? I *may* have just bought another folder as a result of a challenge entry! Love your blue pig on his snowy background and you can't complain about extra bling, can you?
